Your time at London South Bank is bound to be fantastic and will hopefully be problem free. However, it is not uncommon for students to face various problems whilst they study here. LSBSU are aware of the issues that can arise for students and provide a number of services that offer the support and guidance to help you overcome any difficulties.
These services include:
• Vice President Welfare and Campaigns
• Student Advice Bureau
• 'True Vision' Hate Crime Reporting
• Course Board and Fuculty Representatives
• Participation in the Sustainable Development Committee
• Running local and national campaigns for minority students
• Working closely with the University to ensure current and future projects are in the best interests of students
These services are here for you. It is important that if you have any issues concerning your life here at LSBSU that you come and talk to us. The Student Advice Bureau is availble to you by appointment, and is particualry important if you have any academic issues or appeals. As VP of Welfare and Campaigns, I am here to receive any comments or concerns you may have. I hold 2 drop in sessions a week, but can also be contacted to make an appointment to meet with you.
This is your Union. We are here for you.
I have an open door policy, so please come in and see me anytime. Alternatively, you can contact me via email at vpwelfare@lsbu.ac.uk or by phone on 020 7815 6075 (if you are calling from halls or from a University phone, simply dial 6075... its free).
You can now also join the LSBU Welfare and Campaigns group on Facebook. The group will be kept up to date with all the events and campaigns going on at LSBSU, and give you a chance to comment on your experience here at University. Just click here.
I hope to see you soon,
